Trumpet Lessons Manatee County, FL

Instruments: Guitar, Trumpet, Trombone, Euphonium, Music, Acoustic Guitar

For beginning students I use instrument appropriate lesson books that teach the fundamentals of music, the instrument and progressively allows the student to feel comfortable with the sound and feel of the instrument. As they progress I begin introducing solo pieces and instruction to strengthen techniques, embouchure, sight reading, and theory abilities. For my older students I first see what their current level is and learn what their goals are. Read More

Instruments: Violin, Trumpet

I strive to instill in my students the capacity to teach themselves; after all, it is in the practice room, not in the lesson studio, where the greatest leaps are made. Through a focus on sound and air, the embouchure is trained to be reliable and consistent. A strong foundation of fundamental mechanics and technique will open the doors to play any music in any style. Read More

Instruments: Trumpet, French Horn

I have also worked with students with special needs both in school and privately. Now, I live in central Florida with my wife, Jenn, and our rescue doggo, Bailey. Due to the current global health pandemic, I am offering online lessons, with the intention of transitioning back into in-person lessons once it's safe to do so. I'm looking forward to working with you, and feel free to ask me any questions you may have! *** Specialties *** Trumpet - Beginner to Advanced French Horn - Beginner to Intermediate Music Composition - Beginner to Advanced Arranging - Beginner to Advanced Orchestration - Beginner to Advanced Music Theory - Beginner to Advanced Ear Training - Beginner to Advanced Read More

Instruments: Trumpet, Trombone, Euphonium, French Horn, Tuba

I'm a professional trombonist, specializing in the fields of orchestral classical music, and also avant garde contemporary music, and improvised creative music. I was the first trombonist to graduate with a BM from the Colburn School, an intensely rigorous, professional level orchestra, and conservatory, I had the opportunity to work with the Ensemble Modern one of the premier European new music ensembles, and Frank Zappa's self proclaimed "last band".  In 2014, I graduated from the California Institute of the Arts,  where I studied composition, experimental music, and improvisation, and focused primarily on developing my own style of live electronics and improvisation via the trombone.

Instruments: Trumpet, Trombone, Euphonium, Tuba

I always start with the fundamentals of sound production along with the musical fundamentals such as scales and sight-reading that go along with performance. I am extremely interested in all aspects of the biomechanics of trumpet playing, from breathing to embouchure to tone production to technique. Because of my intensive study of brass pedagogy I am very capable of teaching euphonium/baritone horn, trombone, tuba, and French horn. I try to make bad trumpet players better, and good trumpet players great. Read More
